how do I test my window switch???
Driver window not going down on my 91 vert. Took the switch out today, was easy. Literally a few screws.
How do I test the switch to see if its that as opposed to the motor or something else? TIA.

The wiring harness is a bit short and tends to pull the window regulator motor electrical connector to one side, that makes a bad connection which shows up and usually slamming the door while holding the up or down button will get it going for a while. Try that and you will need a multimeter to be able to check the switch if it has 12 volts going out when moving the switch.
Check the window regulator motor and press the connector on properly, if its pulled to one side it will not make a good connection.
Good luck
